Elon Musk's child naming choice puts teachers on the hot seat regarding attendance sheets

Teachers are on the hot seat because this is going to start a trend amongst the nerd people community. Be like, oh, we don't even have to name our kids real names. We can just do symbols and codes. Imagine being a teacher and getting an attendance sheet and being like, hey, Sam, Joe... X-A-E-12.

A hypothetical scenario that hasn't materialized as a widespread trend.

Anytime a team loses to Georgia Tech, it's a trap game because of the triple option

I'm of the mindset that anytime a team loses to Georgia Tech, it's a trap game because you don't see the triple option coming.

This is a common football sentiment regarding triple-option teams like the service academies or Paul Johnson-era Georgia Tech.

Winning three Heismans is a greater accomplishment than winning a national championship

Would you rather have a national championship or three Heismans? And a civil conflict. Easy. Three Heismans. I've won the Heisman every place I've gone, so that's a recruiting [pitch]. Like, hey, you want to win a Heisman? Come be with Coach Duggs because guess what? When he's up 30 points, he's still going to pad those stats.

Purely subjective opinion within the context of the Coach Duggs bit.

The WNBA badly mishandled its Finals scheduling

Instead of doing it in an arena where it's like a 5,000 capacity arena, they could have done it at the regular time. They chose to do 12:30 in the afternoon.

This is a judgment about scheduling strategy and is subjective.

There is real tension between Jalen Brown and the Celtics

I don't think it's Jason Tatum and Jalen Brown really have personal beef. I think it's just, you know, Jalen Brown, Celtics, and that's turning into Jason Tatum in some ways. But I think there's definitely beef between Jalen Brown and the Celtics organization.

The existence and extent of internal tension is not definitively verifiable from the transcript alone.

The Browns cannot make a serious playoff run

Could they make a run to the Super Bowl? No. Yes or no. Yeah. Think of the Browns. The Browns aren't good. We know the Browns aren't good.

The Browns' eventual playoff performance will determine whether they make a serious postseason run.
